Work Stoppage on Carrier Major Air Fore* Triumph

Movt Coiled Final Dafaat For Naval Air Proponents

Special to Central Press TUTASHINGTON—Defense Secretary Louis Johnson's abrupt cinvV cellation of work on the Navy's super aircraft carrier just about ends the Air Force-Navy "war" in favor of the Air Force. It was suspected when James Forrcstal resigned as Defense secretary and Adm. Arthur Radford was “promoted" out of Washington that the While House mind had been made up that naval aviation must be the "loser" in the battle for atom-bombing rights. The Radford "promotion," largely overlooked, got the Navy’s ablest and most vocal advocate, far. far out of town by making him commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet, and boosting his rank from vie* admiral to admiral. Handwriting on the wall was the even earlier, and less noticed, retirement from the Navy of Adm. Dcwiu Clinton Ramsey, another naval aviator who was holding the Pacific command— almost invariably the route to chief of naval operations. Ramsey apparently realized the jig was up with Johnson, an Air Force proponent, in office, and gave up to become head o^the aircraft Industry’s national trade association. Resignation of Secretary of Navy John L. Sullivan provided something of a "bitter end" chapter. Adm. Arthur with Congress apparently interested in getting Radhtd some more low down” on the situation. * • « • O TAFT ANO TUT '-’ARVI \OTE-Bchind the decision of the Ref ub! < an national exvoui 'e committee to call a conference of farm experts and launch sn immediate drive to recapture the farm vote 's t*-* up urging power cf Senate GOP policy leader Robert A.

Labor is out to be"! Taft in 1950. If he wins, his hat will be very much in ti e prcskicriiii.1 ling in 1952. » t • * • FROZEN FACTS—The desire of the United States to le.arn everything possible about the effects of sub-polar climates on the individual has led to some startling discoveries and complete reversal- of preconceived notions about living In sub-freezing climes. Medicos working with the Defense department in the Far North, for instance, have come up with these facts: t 1 fever rub a frozen face, or any other frozen part of the body with ^iow. Instead, place frozen surfaces in warm water. 2 Don't drinf whisky to keep warm. It has been proved that alcohol dilates facial pores and quickens the cooling-off process. 3 -Cold ha.fefv.ut the same effect on all men, whether they come D -m north or .'ruth. Extremely thin persons have been found to • iffer more in e- Id climates. Eat persons, on the other hand, do not seem to be an? better "protected” sgeinst cold than normal peraons. 4 Lack ot lood is not necessarily fatal. Four detachments of U-oops lived o a diet varying from 3,500 calories a day for the first s ./up. dr.vn to two glasses’ of water daily for the fourth unit. At the end of six days, the fourth group members reported weakness but were still active. • • « • • TRUMAN SETBACK?- Democratic leaders privately concede that President Truman's compulsory National Health Insurance program virtually is doomed. Health There la a strong movement afoot in the Senate - ' to eliminate the compulsory payroll tax Insurance feature find retain the rest of the program. Most of the other provisions are similar to those contained in bills submitted by leading Republicans and Democrat* who are championing "voluntary" programs. House leaders'report a lukewarm response to the compulsory plan. However, they say that if the administration waits until elecUona era held next year, Mr. Truman's bill might go through.
